A Pokémon Trainer needs a team of Water-type Pokémon to enter (though there have been exceptions, such as Muk and Pikachu). The competition tests a team of Pokémon's ability to work together as firefighters. The first round consists of a team of Pokémon working in concert to extinguish the flames burning in a house, while the second round requires the Pokémon to grab a flag after climbing a rope. The final round requires that the Pokémon rescue a dummy trapped within the house, then put the fire out.
